Small bird memorial pouches

[sweetpea]

Hello all. I am excited to share my new venture with you. As of today, my new shop on Folksy is open.

Sweetpea Pet Memorials shop on Folksy



This is a sensitive area, but I am making small, personalised, zipped pouches/cushions to store your pet remains. Thanks go to Marianne Marlow who has helped me with my research! I currently only have two items listed so this really is a work-in-progress. I am reminded of something an old boss of mine said to me, "perfection is the enemy of progress", so, I am taking the plunge even though things aren't yet perfect!

They are absolutely lovely sweetpea! You are so talented and clever.

Lovely, sweetpea - go for it!

[Marianne Marlow]

I can vouch for the pouches being excellent!

I wish you lots of luck in your venture, I hope you get lots of orders.

That is such a fabulous idea sweetpea. I hope it is a huge success for you, but I also hope it will be some years before I need one

I'm currently awaiting one for my dearly departed Abbie and I'll be gradually getting them for all my birds past (I have had a lot and they were all cremated)

When the time comes, I would want to give my boy a fitting send off, but I really can't bear to think of it Marianne Marlow.

This is a strange business idea because instead of saying that I am looking forward to you buying from me, I'm saying that I too, hope it will be many, many years before you (& anyone else) have a need to consider coming to me!

What a lovely idea. Well done Sweetpea.

The website is up and running.  I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

Looks great Sweetpea!

I could actually use these to keep my earphones or little accessories too. Who wouldn't want a budgie mini pouch. I know the intent is different, but here we get mini pouches to keep earphones or little accessories too. Can't really recall, if I said this before.

sweetpea There are a lot of people promoting businesses on Instagram. You just need the right hashtags..and collaborate with people for giveaways.. just in case you want to explore that.

I do have some birdie/budgie things in my other shop:
Collection for bird lovers

Postage might be a bit steep though!

I am active on Instagram via my other shop (@onesweetiepea) - it's my preferred social media platform. I can't bear Facebook & Twitter seems a bit flaky for business purposes!

I bought a little change purse from sweetpea's shop mona, that would be ideal for the earphones.
